I built the book to be useful even if you don't have a great library or anthology to hand.
Where possible, the discussion uses poetry in the fine @METS_Texts series, which all have stable print forms, but can be read for free online.

Have I mentioned recently how much I adore these "canonical codex" @METS_Texts editions? They're as close as most people are going to get to reading Middle English in its original MS contexts - and with parallel-text translations, they're also completely accessible for undergrads

5) The Destruction of Jerusalem, or Titus and Vespasian, ed by @karalmcshane & @Illiterature, Oct 2021, retells the Roman siege of Jerusalem as a late medieval Crusades romance, reinterpreting the historical events to champion Christian imperial pursuits. wmich.edu/medievalpublicatio…
ALT The Destruction of Jerusalem, or Titus and Vespasian, edited by Kara L. McShane and Mark J. B. Wright: Here presented in the most comprehensive edition to date, the poem will be of particular interest to scholars and students of Middle English romance, the Crusades, medieval antisemitism, and literary reimaginings of historical events. Further, this new edition expands our understanding of fall of Jerusalem narratives in later medieval England, bringing attention to a long-ignored English retelling of these first-century events that captivated Christian audiences.
